our 'boss' wants us to have a lot of fantasy and blabla , so we can have maybe three or four from the internet but the rest we have to invent and use our fantasy :s we have to dress upp like for example a hippy or a clown and then we have to find a game ...

when i was in brownies we used to play a bunch of race games but with a twist for example funny clothes race (who puts on a funny costume fastest), and things like that.

there was also a game about a farmer and the potato thief (a person is the farmer, and another is the potato thief, the rest are potatoes, and the potato thief has to tag a number of potatoes before the farmer notices.)

water sports (like who fills most buckets with a dish-washing sponge)

on the river on the line (river = jump, line = stand still)

traditional games like catch, hide-and-seek but with a twist, for example instead of the normal catch make the kids hop on one leg instead or something.

since the games have to be themed try finding ideas for themed games over the internet

hahah, well when i was little we used to do this thing where the kids pair up in twos and you give every team 2 rolls of toilet paper. Then when you say go one teamate uses 1 roll of toilet paper to wrap up the other like a zombie, then they when they are completely covered they have to hop along until they get to a line then they unwrap themselves and wrap the other kid and then they go back...it sounds kinda confusing cuz i don't really know how to explain it, but we called it zombie run :P lol tbh, i still like that game :p
